Yay, I got FF6 Adv.

Maybe if they do a retranslation, they could, you know, invest in adding more dialogue? That way I'd be happy. -CSM

I really wish you would stop bitching about a translation. Half the game is battles, the other half story. If it isn't the same, then you have a new perspective.

^You phail, Chuckle.

FF6 is easily one of the best FF's.

ChuckleHuck · #26

^I'm saying that I do not prefer it.

It's like...my 2nd favorite.

Crazyswordsman · #27

I sincerely don't hope it's FFVII that's your favorite. -CSM

I just got past the opera scene. I think the new "vocals" were actually better then the original. They also still kept in the "I'm a former general not some opera floozy!" line for those who were afraid that Square would take out all the Woosly lines.
Personally I like most of the re-translation better then the original version. It's actually closer to the original Japanese version then the old American version was. Changing the names of items and magic to fit more with the rest of the series and such.
Just one question who does the esper Cait Sith replace from the original?

Crazyswordsman · #30

Stray.

And frankly, why does everyone want to play something like the Japanese version? Frankly, I think Japanese and ANY connection to Anime destroys Final Fantasy as a series. If I wanted those elements in a game, I'd play Chrono. -CSM

....It's in no way connected to anime save that Shadow and Cyan's weapons now have their original names, which only make sense because they are a ninja and a samurai, respectively. So yeah, they're not even anime-ish in THAT way. Where the hell does that come from?

Daos · #32

I would think you would want something as close to the original source as possible. Think of your favorite movie or show and if it was re-translated. Don't you think it would be better if it was as close to the orignal script as possible?

Then why did you protest my opinion in the first place?

Give up, you are far from felling the game.

Felling the game? ...What game?

ChuckleHuck · #35

^The game of life, my dull-minded friend.

SephirothKirby · #36

I apologize for my dimwitted friend's behavior, Wyborn. He doesn't know any better.

ChuckleHuck · #37

^I am bewilderet at thee's false companionship!

Wyborn · #38

Good God, I can't tell if you're dual spammers or not, but cut it the hell out, this is actually about FF6. Playing off of each other is no excuse to act stupid.

You can't "fell" life. That would imply you kill it. Ass.

And I would assume you would want somethign as close to the original experience as possible because I still view video games as something of a literary or at least artistic medium and the experience originally intended by the writers is the one I want to have. This is the truest version of FF6 released in the states so far, and then they added to it.

As to adding dialogue: they did, when they took out a few of Woolsey's stupid one-liners.

Well...*sniff*...SephirothKirby started it. [Okay, I'm LEAVING]

Well, the only things I do read/watch that were translated out of foreign languages are Tintin and foreign film, and I honestly want something that entertains, not something close to the original. In Tintin's case, it needs to have humor as well. If I find a translation accurate but not entertaining, it's a bad translation. -CSM
